Chevy Blew Out The Candles On The Mustang's Birthday Cake

04/17/2018

The Ford Mustang just celebrated its 54th birthday. And in typical Chevy vs. Ford banter, there was some shade thrown.

The Mustang has made quite a reputation for itself over the past 50 years and can arguably be put down as one of the most-loved cars in recent history. But of course to go along with all those fans are lots of haters, too. Especially Chevy guys, and people like to take a dig at the pony car whenever they can.

Chevrolet released a video on its Facebook page to "celebrate" the Mustang's birthday. At first, it looks like it's just a congratulatory post. But as the video pans from the man holding the cake in the shape of a Mustang with the "54" candles, you start to hear a rumble. And sure enough, a Camaro flies by and puts out those candles.

The caption of the video is simple but gets the point across: "We don’t just bring the thunder. We steal it, too.” Nicely done, Chevy.
